It’s the unknown isn’t it. We have no idea if the current AFL top midfielders will perform as they have ..we have no idea who will break out at each club & who will drop off. We are firmly in the “unknown”. With a lot of new high end talent & new “established older “ talent … Kingy’s job is to blend them in with our existing team & really who knows. This is what I am most excited for ..none of us will know how it comes together till the season proper. Right now we are one of 18 teams aspiring to make finals & we can be assured that will be the mindset of coaches & players & hopefully supporters .

One thing I have enjoyed is more positive media and not the relentless “bagging” we endured over the preseasons..mainly referencing Oliver. As a supporter you were generally disillusioned by the time the season started…it was relentless. It was time for him & Melb to part ways (which incidentally he has stated in today’s newspaper article). I hope he turns his life around and wish him well ..Trac on the other hand …..

Well I will respectfully disagree. After a conversation with an ex footballer ( who had a Lisfranc ) he explained the healing process you go through ..lot of work on balance..wobble boards etc but guess what “kicking” is not part of that process. According to him it’s a massive advantage when you’re not loading your foot with a heavy football. I’m def no expert but commonsense dictates that would be quite an obvious observation.

4 of us will def be there ..accom already booked but agree that a Sat or Sunday would have been so much better. Apparently we’re a very popular choice for Sunday games in season proper but score a Friday in the pre season , Go figure ..

If there is any positive in this injury is that it was his left foot & he is a right footer. It won’t change the healing time but his kicking shouldn’t be impeded when he does come back.

Well thank goodness you have put ..”the world to rights”, Nothing like a good dose of pessimism to suck the energy out of the optimism of our pre season track watchers

Guerra …went right instead of left

Pretty sure it’s why he was so emotional in our 2 finals. My thoughts are Geelong. Like the men it will be good to have a change whilst acknowledging everything he did. It would be good to see Shae Sloane get a crack

I’m with you …we were incredibly outnumbered…the roars & booing from the Nth Supporters ..it was ear splitting

I’m sorry …we could debate this for eternity but they are the Melbourne AFLW demons not the Casey Demons & if Nth ( not Blues..Pies..ESS ..Tigers) can get 6000..we can surely do better …

It was in a central city area …no excuse

That was an incredibly exciting game. Took a special effort from Garner in the last qrt to get them over the line. I dare say if we had Purcell in the middle the result could have been different. Massive Nth crowd would have def helped. Our girls will be right in it next year & let’s hope we get more supporters along. So proud of them …

See you there ❤️💙

Thomas Matthew’s …small forward

Whoever we pick will be someone who can play a couple of positions. King has stated he will not pick anyone who can only play one position…
